Or if superheroes are more your style, you can ride along on the Avengers’ “Avenjet Space Mission ” ($59.99). An Avenjet is a vertical takeoff and landing shuttle that Iron Man created for the superhero team’s field missions, according to the Marvel Avengers Wiki .
The mission includes three Avengers (Captain Marvel, Captain America and Iron Man) pitted against Thanos and Hyperion. Comics Alliance points out that Hyperion is usually a good guy, “but there are a few versions of that guy floating around the multiverse, so you can never be too sure. I guess?”
The products are available from the Lego website as well as stores where Lego is usually sold.
